Time of supply determines return period; an earlier-issued tax invoice must be reported in that return unless reissued.
An invoice dated June should ordinarily be reported in June GSTR-1 because the time of supply (and tax liability) arises on the invoice date; alternatively, to align invoicing with physical removal in July and the e-way bill, one may cancel the June invoice and issue a fresh July invoice to comply with invoice-timing requirements.
